cal680 Posted December 22, 2005 #1 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Does anybody know when Carnival sends out the booklets with our boarding passes and things? Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseFairy Posted December 22, 2005 #2 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I think you're referring to cruise docs. They should come 30 days before your sail date, they have your luggage tags, sail and sign card info, and funpass page in it. Have a good cruise!

cruisinjules Posted December 22, 2005 #3 Share Posted December 22, 2005 OH, yay, they include luggage tags. My luggage has no tags and I had "buy luggage tags" on my cruise to-do list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My luggage has no tags and I had "buy luggage tags" on my cruise to-do list.Probably not the same type of tags you are thinking of. The cruiseline provides color-coded tags to facilitate delivery of luggage to your cabin. These are simple card stock with elastic string. It is *NEVER* a good idea to attach these tags to your luggage until after you have claimed your checked bags from the airline carousel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picklebongo Posted December 22, 2005 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Why isn't it a good idea to attach the tags prior to getting them from the carousel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tef43 Posted December 22, 2005 #6 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Why isn't it a good idea to attach the tags prior to getting them from the carousel?So that the tags are not totally destroyed by the airline/airport luggage handlers, causing you an unnecessary delay obtaining new tags from the stevedores at the pier.

GoinCruisin Posted December 22, 2005 #7 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Does anybody know when Carnival sends out the booklets with our boarding passes and things? Thanks. :) I generally receive mine anywhere from 5-14 days out. Hang tight, even without docs, you can board the ship... just fill out your funpass on the Carnival site.

Cotton Posted December 22, 2005 #8 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hi Cal, and welcome to the boards.:) Yep, good advice above. I'd like to add that you'll also receive a little "Welcome Aboard" booklet with your docs. READ this. It has a wealth of info in it that you will need to know. Happy cruisin'!

SPARKY12 Posted December 25, 2005 #9 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Why do I have a different color tags from my relatives, we are on the same deck, upper. They';re about 10 cabins down from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylandtk Posted December 25, 2005 #10 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Boarding luggage tags usually indicate which half (forward/aft) of the ship the bags will be loaded through before they are disbursed to the rooms. Are you and your relatives near the middle of the ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
